Standard Echo Protocol Sample

At my externship site, protocols are done here on GE's Vivid E9 & Vivid Q. Since they offer excellent post processing features and a nice live capture of the heart's structures (by hitting the "image store" button twice)- we usually do additional measurements post-test to save time.

This protocol is in an abbreviated format, assuming that you are well versed in your echo views. I also divided the protocol into (9) sequences that can be followed in numerical order- hoping there's something here to help tweak your "diagnostic" capabilities.
